I invited him to my brewery, if he shows up that should be enough to convince/encourage/convert him. Assuming he likes my beer. I also shouldn't accuse the guy of drinking Bud Light. He was buying a double wide of Sutter Home at the time.

we affectionately refer to that as Stagger Home

Salty. Probably the guy didn't know how to articulate "bitter" or any other number of flavors. But I know about the negative comment bugging ya. One can have 99 people tell them what a badass job they're doing and then latch onto the single poor response.

I feel this same way about playing music live. I have super high expectations for myself, so when I screw up, I can't help but think that every musician in the crowd notices. And it's only them that notice too, usually. Played a show on Saturday, crowd was way into it, but I played shaky in the first song, only a couple people maybe noticed at all, but still I can't get over it...fixated on the small, negatives...
